Last bulletin from Dianella is now up! for anyone interested:
@TV.Cynic you are always going to have certain stations be strong in certain markets.
Perth has always been and will for a long time be a channel 7 town. Newcastle will
Always be a channel 9 (nvm) town. And in tasmania and wa Southern cross and GWN absolutely dominate - unproportionaly so to how seven performs on a national level
In the us say you have abc which dominates in New York and la. Go down to Miami and the #1 2ngkish station is FOx (well wsvn - fox affil)
And then In Indianapolis NBC dominates
A bit of a struggle this morningâŚ
Today Perth news presented from 9 Plaza, saving the studio for 6pm. A couple of technical issues but mostly quite smooth, considering they are on an OB.
That screen (?) to the far left of the set with the today logo is huge.
Because only Perth is getting a new look todayâŚI think.
Tim did say all new graphics. However could be Perth only for now until Sydney updates their set. Maybe the new graphics really integrate with the set so it might not look right in the other markets.
Internet now is fast enough here so I can cap any news updates. I gave up with the old aerial.
Kind of inspired by Ten Eyewitness Newsâ graphics, isnât it?
Ooh, I like those new graphics.
Much better than Sevenâs recent refresh
Video of Newsbreak
Much better than Sevenâs refresh
Even despite the fact that the general presentation quality is far better than Seven News, the refreshed Nine News Perth is an extremely blatant rip-off of Ten Eyewitness Newsâ On-Air Presentation and moreso in video form IMO. Also, the theme music/transition SFX donât really go well together. For that, I have to dislike this new look.
Nine News Sydney: Please keep the dotted globe in your branding when you next relaunch!
That super combination obviously inspired by the networks current on-air package, should we expect a HD version of the logo and brackets at 6pm?
Canât really see Tenâs graphics in it. I can see parts of Nineâs previous look (the one before the now old ones and the late 2008 ones with the red and blue (the ones with the yellow vertical lines animating) otherwise we seen both the ribbons and the bracket from the current on-air look integrated. IMO itâs better than Tenâs and Sevenâs.
Very average graphics IMO, just looks like a mess of random shapes on the screen even after pausing and rewatching a few times to try and figure out what is going on.
Not a fan of the big white box on the bottom right of the supers either.
Still better than what Seven has served up though.
I would like to have seen them do a new rendition of âCool Hand Lukeâ
I donât mind that full screen transition but those supers⌠I donât like them. They seem very right heavy and unbalanced and the white lines donât line up because of the weird red square corner, donât get it.
